I made one that consumed the HN API a little while ago (maybe a year?) using the fphttpclient library bundled with Lazarus. It was pretty simple to use and all the documentation is on the wiki[1]. It is a lot more low level than I am used to personally but it was fun nonetheless.

Ah!

I do remember I clicked on that briefly but I thought it was too low level like you said, and I thought there would be something else so I kept looking.

I guess I was wrong, but it's good to know there is something that works.

It also doesn't look that bad anyway, so I might as well give it a try.

Thanks!
